Indirect Measurement
Indirect Height
Note: Indirect measurement is always less accurate
than length measurement or real time measurement.
Depending on the application, greater measuring er-
rors are possible than with length measurement or real
time measurement. To improve the measuring accu-
racy, we recommend using a tripod (accessory).

For indirect measurement, three mea-
suring modes are available. Each mea-
suring mode can be used for determin-
ing distances.
The indirect measurement is used
to measure distances that cannot be
measured directly because an obstacle
is obstructing the laser beam or no tar-
get surface is available as a reflector.
